| Summary: | <b>Aim:</b> The aim of this study was to determination of the seroprevalences
of major respiratoric viral agents of cattle in
central region Anatolia.<p>
<b>Materials and Methods:</b> In the present study, blood serum
samples were collected from 500 cattle not vaccinated
against Bovine Herpesvirus type 1 (BHV-1), Bovine Viral
Diarrhea Virus (BVDV), Bovine Respiratory Syncytial Virus
(BRSV), Parainfluenza virus-3 (PIV-3) and Bovine Adenovirus-
3 (BAV-3), which are the most important infectious
agents of respiratory system in cattle, in five provinces
(Amasya, Çorum, Kayseri, Nevşehir, and Yozgat) of Central
Anatolia. Serum samples were investigated serologically
with indirect Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA)
for specific antibodies developed against BHV-1, BVDV, BRSV,
PIV-3 and BAV-3.<p>
<b>Results:</b> Seropositivity of the serum samples of BHV-1, BVDV,
BRSV, PIV-3 and BAV-3 were determined as 57.8%, 68.0%,
78.2%, 85.6% and 76.8%, respectively.<p>
<b>Conclusions:</b> It may be stated that main infectious viral
agents for respiratory disease of cattle in Central Anatolia is
still presents, and vaccine programs should be applied. |
